- Absolutely blood-curdling, heartbreaking, devastating moments for Canadian Bianca Andreescu, who injured her ankle early in the second set of her fourth-round match against Ekaterina Alexandrova and had to leave the court in a wheelchair.

When she shouted "NOT AGAIN!!" I felt SO bad for her. Wow.
Why ?
@TonyStark-eq3jv she was on the comeback trail from injury, then picks up another injury.
Why do people think they know Bianca's injury and what she's actually feeling? Does compassion still exist? My heart goes out to her not only because she's in pain but also for the frustration of being injured once again. Sending her good vibes for a speedy recovery.
She's a drama queen that's why. It's not the first time she fakes an injury in a match she's losing. Mark my word she'll be playing in the French Open.
@@CaptainNippon not sure if you noticed but she was up 2-0 when she 'faked it'.
@@kim267 Yes, but that does not mean she will win the second set, she was behind 40-15 in the third game of the second set, so technically 2-1. She lost the first set 7-6. She has a history of faking injuries and is quite a drama queen. If the injury is serious then she will be out for at least 5-6 months recovering if she plays in the French Open then she's faking it, again.
@@CaptainNippon, I disagree. Being behind 15-40 doesn't mean the game is over. Been there many times to turn it around. Bianca's turned it around quite a few times. You may think she's a drama queen but that doesn't mean she's not injured. People feel pain in different degrees. When my daughter was a toddler she could do a face plant onto a coffee table and not say boo but my son would scream bloody murder about a paper cut. We all feel pain differently. Unless you are her doctor you can't make that call.
@@kim267 You're delusional and you're making up false narratives. She lost the first set and the second set was going to be 2-1. She hasn't won a tournament since the US Open, which means she has lost her match to someone at every tournament she played in. You're making it sound like she was going to win or something. Let's find out if she can play at the french open in 6 weeks. If this injury is serious, no way she'll be ready to play in 6 weeks unless she fakes her injury and put on a show for everyone to see. You don't cry like that and all of a certain you're good to go for the French Open.
She had started to make a comeback from multiple injuries over the last few years! Now this? Life is so unfair. Get well soon Bianca!
you're right, William. particularly sad when there is so much potential.
I believe this is the reason for the level of tears. She confirmed it for me when she screamed “not again!”
That’s probably more the tears then the pain even though she saying it’s the pain

@@chelsm90 );> It's It's Hard Too See in Video Me Adrian And Kevin We Feel Bad For Her And My God It's So Pain
Not just physical pain, but the pain of heartache from blood, sweat and tears poured into accomplishing her dreams and goals and her being dealt with storms of physical ache already and now more. Upmost prayers. 🙏🏻💗
Yes, these young athletes are under so much pressure to succeed after years of constant training, dedication, and focus. You feel for her - and wish her the strength to recover mentally, physically, and emotionally.
@@denisceballos9745She recovered just fine and in a couple weeks played at the French Open
@@denisceballos9745 She sprained her ankle for christ's sakes. Athletes have to suck up pain from injuries, not cry like a little baby over some pain. This video is embarrassing and gives women athletes a bad name.
@@stevenmeyer9674Are you serious? I can't believe you dare to say that. She is clearly experiencing terrible pain. The only ones that might get a bad impression of this are heartless people like you.
@@jurjenvanderhoek316 Spraining a ankle is painful . But, I have never seen any athlete in any sport react with as much drama as she did here. And knowing that she was back competing in a couple of weeks indicates it wasn't that serious of a injury.
I feel her despair. I did gymnastics and ballet for quite awhile, and I loved it, but I had an accident that resulted in a devastating knee injury (bucket-handle meniscus tear, MCL and LCL tears, and needed surgical repairs). I couldn't come back from that; been almost 15 years, and I have chronic dislocations, pain and weakness.
Some injuries you just don't come back from, and you know that as an athlete. The sorrow of knowing all your work could be gone, it's heartbreaking.
I'm so sorry you went through that. I definitely relate. Knee injuries, particularly where the meniscii are badly torn with issues involving depletion of cartilage, are among the most devastating for dancers, gymnasts, and athletes generally. Some accidents cause permanent damage and end athletic careers in an instant.
Esse é o motivo do choro desesperado dela.
This broke my heart. I pray she recovers quickly. Ekaterina was so sweet. Class act.
I can't say whether Bianca exaggerated or not. What I can say is when she cried "not again" this reflects a genuine heartbreak of someone who has had continuous bad luck and must be dismayed and terrified at the thought of another long layoff. A lot of judgment in these comments, but I can completely understand why in the shock of the moment the outburst was this intense
Good actress
@@honesty3440 coming from an honest person heh!
Her US Open win was a "right place, right time" type of win. Just a flash in the pan!... Hope she proves me wrong though!!!
@@takingBackWhatsMine 3 titles (in 4 finals is flash in the pan heh!
how many did you get btw? what level of tournament? ITF, WTA, M1000, slam?
The pain is real. I have popped ligament in my ankle and the pain is crazy bad. It shoots right thru your eyeballs. Those of you calling her fake have no idea what you are talking about.
Good God... that was extremely difficult to watch.💔
Seeing someone in that level of distress and PAIN, and the HIGH emotions attached to that distress.... very Heartbreaking.
I know she will be okay and she will eventually relax ...but at the time, Damn... that was ROUGH!!
Get well soon Bianca👍👍🇨🇦
I think she’s devastated because she has already been through this and knows how awful it is… terrible pain both physically and emotionally… may she heal quickly ❤
They brought out a wheelchair of all things. If she has an ankle injury the wheelchair might be the worst option, she would be putting pressure on the injury. She should have had a gurney to take her off. Did they even have an EMT available?
My Heart TOTALLY goes out to her...BLESSINGS BIANCA....Love you.....may you have a FULL RECOVERY....
I am sure the the realization that she will now have to rehab again and spend months to just get back to where she is in her game is emotionally agonizing as evidence in her words "not again" as she was laying there. Hopefully her injury will not be serious and she will bounce right back in a week or two.
I feel so bad for her! 😢 I hope she’s not injured too seriously & can recover soon. ❤
"@karencalderwood9058" These young athletes over train but also there are just people who are more prone to injuries than others. I have never been a competitive level athlete but used to train to participate in foot races and have trained to run a marathon. I developed arthritis and the orthopedic doctor told me that arthritis is genetic and nothing I did or didn't do caused it. There are people who are very physically active and never develop arthritis and there are couch potatoes who never develop arthritis. And alternately there are physically active people who develop arthritis and also couch potatoes who develop arthritis.
I have had double hip replacement and may need double knee and double shoulder replacement.
She tore 2 ligaments
@@obscurelyvague yeah I can hold my tears this so sad 😢❤
Terrible to see someone so injured no matter what the circumstances. May GOD give her a speedy recovery.
God was the one who injured her-the sicko that he is.
Amen
God could have prevented the injury ? Where was your god ?
May her doctors give her a speedy recovery.
@@mikegagnon1411 God gave us all free will. She took the chance to play as with all those in sports or anything else. It's the chance we take for all WE do. Stop blaming God.
I feel so bad for her! The pain must have been unbearable! This is the first time I've heard about this. I hope she is feeling better and makes a recovery.
😢😢😢😢😢😢😢❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ poor girl
This isn't about the pain. She's a professional athlete working out and training constantly; she knows how to handle pain. It's the frustration and shock of: "wow, I've been working my butt off for years and years every single day and my career could end because too many injuries." This is her entire life that could go down the drain.
Ya ya ya lol 😂 faker
No, this IS about the pain! And all the thoughts are combined with it. ALL she is thinking right now is pain relief and not about the game she is out of.
@MCL1972 because of sprained ankle im on tramadol everyday, because my legs hurt and I work on foot :(
As I was watching the match live, and just reviewed a video which I (thankfully) saved of the incident which I'd found online prior to it (as expected) being deleted, I have to disagree extremely strongly with your analysis. When a player is crying in absolute anguish, and can clearly be heard crying out, "I've never felt this kind of pain before!!!" (this is an EXACT quote of what she said while she was lying upon the court)... yeah, it's 100% about the pain.
@@mad_warlock666 Are you a walking messenger?
Coming from a soccer player with terrible ankles, it is SO frustrating to re-injure them and it hurts more each time.
Pain is a perception in the brain, and can be worsened by feelings of fear, devastation, etc., as would understandably be the case when your career and passion are on the line. It's a real thing and nothing to do with weakness whatsoever. I feel bad for her and hope anyone judging her does not have to go through something similar to find out what it must feel like.
I been watching her for a while and I feel her pain l, injury after injury rehab after rehab she broke down and the pain is not again why me, it sucks. I wish her a speedy recovery. She was playing very well up to this point.
My heart breaks for this poor woman. I know the agony of pain. I hope she is doing better.
I am a sports physical therapist and certified athletic trainer and when she yelled "not again" it is devastating. I have seen it before in athletes who have suffered multiple debilitating injuries just to go through it again.
"@robinharris4247" I once talked with a lady who said her boyfriend took up running and started to develop stress fractures. Some people's bodies are just more prone to athletic injuries than others.
Months later, I looked it up and it says she tore 2 ligaments. She was both in the most pain she'd ever been in and devastated by that fact of course. I cried watching this.
@@obscurelyvague That is true, some people are built to run some are not, some are built to powerlift some are not. Your right. There are things you can do to change that to a degree but some things you just can't........
I had similar injury. I cried...it was femur neck fracture. No one helped me. I'm still unable to run...I can understand her pain.
Tennis is not an easy sport as people might think. I used to play for 30 some years, had to stop due to knees and ankles issues, please get well soon Bianca.
Stop it 🥱
*I played for 30 some years. *ankle issues
Injuries like hers are very psinful.
who thinks?
Anyone who thinks tennis is easy has obviously never played at a reasonable level or above. Tennis takes an incredible amount of physical and mental skill. More than any other sport I can think of really.
That poor girl. This totally made me tear up. So
nice to see her competitor try to help her.
Me too
@@sophiegagnon4474me three
Nobody can truly know what people are going through, let alone professional athletes. These are individuals who strive for this dream and continuously work harder and harder to feel as healthy and strong as possible. Although, there are moments where injuries occur when you least expect them. It's frustrating no doubt to have to deal with it on a consistent basis. These types of moments is what is only helping create the most magical and memorable of comeback stories. Bianca has dealt with a lot and who knows what else she is going through but i truly wish the best for her and her family. Rooting Bianca on with my whole heart. Overcoming great adversities and getting back up and fighting for your dream time and time again is what makes a true and most deserving. champion. Get well soon Bianca!
I couldn’t agree more
Absolutly Heartbreaking. I wish you all the Best and i Hope you are quick healthy, Bianca.😘
So sorry for Bianca, I felt in tears while watching this video, get well soon dear🙏❤️🙏
Prayers to you and your recovery
Need better medical staff on stand by with better equipment this is sad. Looks like a high-school nurse in there.
I know! She didn’t even get the towels under her in time, moving her foot and making her scream! 😩
This is so very wrong. Total lack of medical attention, it's actually disgusting to see .
Shut up she is hurt so keep your own opinion your self
I give the lady helping her a big Thank You. She is doing her best with her.
What exactly do you think "better medical staff" was going to do for her? And who would these better medical staff people be?
Certified Athletic trainers know what they are doing.
The athlete was clearly aware that she damaged her ankle , I don't know her history but she appears to be reacting to a reinjury or a similar injury from her past and she knows it's probably going to involve surgery and close to a year of rehab. That's an emotional reaction that anyone would have.
Within minutes she stops crying and sits up.
When she hears the fans cheering for her, again, she cries (I don't blame her).
End of the day, the trainer is trying to stabilize the leg and watch for signs of shock. Then it's off to the hospital for xrays, MRI and plans for surgery.
Praying for a speedy recovery
Hee career is so much plagued by injury. She would have been an extreme star . She won a slam at just 16/17 years . If she didn’t have this much injuries her career would be something special. Get well soon Bianca
Everyone’s pain threshold is different, hope she recovers soon
This was sad to watch! I know exactly what a major ankle injury feels like! I broke my ankle bone and it snapped in half and the ligaments completely tore off the bone! My foot was swinging 360 degrees! I was skateboarding when this happened over 15 years ago. I am fine now thank you!
I feel very sorry for this Lady to haved that Painful injury and I'll be praying for her on her speedy recovering.Amen.
Much respect to the other player also whom helped her too x
I fully agree, her opponent getting ice made me tear up even more. Then the hug. Idk maybe that's all standard professional sportsmanship, but I don't think so. Not everyone physically can stand by witnessing someone in serious pain. Some of us are empathic and feel pain in that situation. Also known as the reason I never became a paramedic or nurse or doctor. I can and do still help and do a fine job, but if it were my career it would take way too much out of me. So it did mean a lot that she stayed and hugged.
Y!
I'm hearing those sobs .I'm almost crying!
This is so awful to see….my heart breaks so much. And I know most of you reading this have gone through pain such as this. If you’re mortal, you are going to endure really painful things. If it’s not physical, it’s going to be mental or spiritual pain.
Last year I had reconstructive ligament and tendon surgery and also surgery to fix the talus bone I broke and the calcaneus bone I broke. I was in a cast and then walking boot for a total of 6 months. Up yo 18 months full recovery.
People go through way worse, while others don’t. Just know all of you are freaking amazing being human and experiencing life!!
Sending blessing and love to everyone and to Bianca ❤️
I am not even an athlete but after repeated injuries i reacted like this too. It wasnt the pain, it was the frustratikn of the injury happening AGAIN, knowing the weeks of rehabilitation i would need. I can't even imagine if my dreams depended on it 😢
Get well soon Bianca ❤️🩹 you’re strong 💪
Bianca Andreescu back in the gym less than three weeks after scary Miami injury! Thank God!!
Tears of mostly anger and frustration. Poor girl. Our bodies are sometimes frail vessels for fierce spirits.
Great job on help praying for speedy tecovery
These young women are strong and tough . That must have been agony , I hope she is well soon.
Oh, poor Lady, I didn't see/hear what happened, GOD BLESS YOU
When I cry and in extreme pain like that, my mom always tells me to blow out the candles
As a former paramedic we used smell the roses then blow out the candles. Not only for pain but panic attacks to help with anything that focuses on the breathing and what is happening
@@debbilangham5357 I know a lot of people are going to see using medication especially for mental health in certain countries and hearing America but personally for me I’ve been using prescription medication my entire life for different things especially for mental health since I was 18 because I also have ADHD and I’m epileptic since I was a baby
Hearing her cry in pain like that I feel so sorry for her after what had happened to her
Why is it always a medical team with back packs for tennis matches seems very slow to react. In other sports they have EMTs and a stretcher. Ambulance on stand by. I think they should have better medical response team to help especially with injury and extreme pain Bianca was experiencing. I wish her the best and speedy recovery.
Poor thing... can literally feel her pain..
Poor girl! Hope she has a quick recovery!
Prayers to her 💜
Tennis is tough on the joints. I know. I played for over 30 years and had both knees replaced, and now I have chronic tennis elbow. My days playing tennis are numbered, and as much as I detest pickleball, I have to join the geezer squad in a new sport. The way these youngsters are playing the game of tennis today is unbelievable. It wasn't even humanly possible back in my days. It's fantastic to watch. My heart goes out to Bianca. Get well soon.
"@bobchew2143" Certain sports have really become about pushing envelopes.
Poor girl! Feel better, Bianca!
How is she doing ? Gosh that brought me to tears. 😢
poor girl. Hope she feels better soon. I wonder what it feels like to be like that. Hope your leg feels ok
Very very sad
Hurts very badly get well soon
This video doesn't even show the injury. Poor journalism (
God bless and heal you
Poor thing. I hope she is doing better.
I used to have seizures from teenager to 29. I couldnt keep a job for the stigma back then. Each time i had one and woke up i cried like that because id hoped theyd leave with the medicines. I totally understand for me it was my job and s car. For her intense work, rehab, and fear of not competing again. It leaves u with a kind of ptsd.
We love you bianca!!!
Im so sorry ❤❤😢😢
Been there. The real pain hits when you realize you have to go thru excruciating rehab for months, again.
Crushing moment! I'm sure she will do what she has to and return back to competitive tennis. She has obviously dedicated her life to the sport and I wish her well.
In regards to the nut jobs who leave stupid comments there is nothing we can do about it. They think only of themselves and we have to hope someday they will meet someone who will shine light into their eyes so they can feel compassion.
Oh gosh she seems in immense pain. 😢 they dealing more with her reaction than her physical injury. I feel awful for her.
The not Again comment I felt inwardly, I hope and Pray she's OK and doesn't have any long term injuries
Great medical care. It probably hurt like hell, but only in the short run. She'll be better for it and will have saved her more pain. And great sportsmanship for her opponent to stand by the entire time Bianca is being treated.
And great choice in not showing her injury in this video. It was unnecessary. Bravo! 🌹
i hope she feels better
Me too I hope she feels better soon 😢❤😢❤😢❤😢❤😢❤😢❤😢
Anyone saying it’s fake lacks a lot of intelligence as to how pain actually works (or they just think they are funny when they aren’t). It’s all the overwhelmingness behind the pain, the anxiety, heartbreak and then the injury itself.
I tore all of my ankle ligaments on my right foot during a competition and let me tell you, she is not exaggerating.. I would normally jump right back up but ended up screamed and crying in pain. It the worst pain I've ever felt.. My injury happened in march 2020, got surgery for it and it still hasn't healed. As an athlete, I feel terrible for her. It's gonna take a long time to recover. :( I hope she's okay now
She was back in a month. Lower-grade tear, fortunately. No surgery.
Ya, I tore 2 ligaments and one tendon in my ankle, and the pain was brutal. Thought I broke it because of the crunching sound. Couldn't put any weight on it for 2 weeks. God, I feel bad for her. She's been through so much.
That looks so painful. People don’t need to be so critically injured.
Ummm . . . EXCUSE ME . . . but this video shows NOTHING of s player's injury. Nothing of what or how it happened, and nothing of the injury itself, We see 5'39" of a player lying on the ground crying, AFTER some sort of ankle injury, then being wheeled off the court. Which ankle was injured? How did it happen? This is NOT what I consider "ENTERTAINMENT"!
I'd still be laying on the court crying if it happened to me and probably to most of you. These sports people are pretty tough, I'm sure it hurt and was frustrating. Hope she is up and around soon.
No matter what kind of injury this was or if she cried in pain or frustration ... why the f*** hell did the camera stay "on focus", revealing all this ... / Damn, if someone is in such a situation, turn off the camera ...
God bless her opponent who stayed there to help, and gave her comfort
I had a really bad fall in 2012 where I broke my ankle 3 places. I was crying from pain and shock, I was on summer vacation and it was over in a heartbeat. Until you have been in that situation you can't say why someone is upset. If she had injury after injury the poor girl can cry all she wants. She's probably frustrated, mad, sad and in pain. I have had 5 surgeries since that break so I can understand some of what she's feeling.
I also broke my ankle in 3 places in 2017. I have a plate & 10 titanium screws permanently placed to hold me back together.
I am in nearly same situation now, broke 3 places in my ankle with syndesmosis ligament torn during my vacation just started. Wonders how your ankle recovered fully, and why so many follow up surgeries you had to suffer through...
Useless if they are the medical staff. Poor girl she is in so much pain.
OJO. ZAPATILLAS MUY ALTAS, muy lamentable lo sucedido a una gran tenista, soy su fan numero 1, cuanto lo siento Bianca
That medical response was almost criminal. Why weren't real paramedics available?
Get well soon
So sad 😢 ..
I really love how her. Opponent stayed and helped her with the ice pack.
An official sporting event and no splints available?! Seriously. 😢
May God grant her a quick recovery!
You don’t need splints if there’s no fracture !
@shanjones4869 she had 2 torn ligaments, a splint is a reasonable course of action in that scenario. If someone says they can't hold their foot up, yeah they kinda need some type of splint.
@@AnimaSola3o4 exactly. Tore mine this summer and have been using a brace for weeks!
What did she hurt?
My heart goes out to her. I've had 5 different surgeries on my right knee and in 2 weeks I'm having to have a total knee operation. I 100% understand her anger and frustration over dealing with injury after injury.
May God take her pain and heal her fast
She hurt her ankle badly.
She tore 2 ligaments
Get well soon, Bianca!
How is there no legitimate EMS at this event? An ambo crew with medics, stretcher, and medications for pain should be O/S for this, not a middle aged woman and a guy with back packs and kind words.
Che possa riprendersi presto❤mi dispiace troppo per lei 😢
Tough injury. Kudos to the medical team.
Her opponent hugging her great sportsmanship
preying you 😢 ❤❤❤❤
Ahh i can f**** feel this!!! Omg! That constant injury after injury, when you're so close to your dream and your body just wont cooperate! The heartbreak is as 10x worse than the pain itself. Another dream crushed 😣. I dont even think she is crying because of the pain. Usually with that adrenaline in the body, the pain is not as bad as it will be later on. I feel for her. Please dont give up on that dream, take as much time you need to recover, that dream will always be there waiting for you no matter how long and torturous the journey is. Sending prayers ❤
She played at the French Open a few weeks later
Where’s ambulance?? Unbelievable how it works in the States..
I feel very bad for her. Tennis is a tough sport. If she’s not sponsored, she can’t go out and make a living until she is fully recovered. I wish her a speedy recovery.
she is a world class player with a world singles ranking as high as #4 and top ranking in Canada. She has won the US Open which earned her more than $3 million and the Canadian open.She has a world class support team and sponsors behind her including physical therapists. She will be fine

I wish the player a speedy recovery.
And why do you have to hold the camera on it for so long?
